I'm always told that what I say is controversial. Why is it controversial? Because I speak from a tradition that has now fallen out of favor with the dominant media in this country. And so when I say things like marriage should be between one man and one woman, I'm called a bigot.

Everybody knows full well my passion about defeating Barack Obama. Over my dead body would I vote for Barack Obama.
